Different Week

Monday 14 January The morning sun was beaming down on the Wonder Dog and me today as we strolled through the woods. New life is appearing as the bulbs push up new green shoots , through the thick mud that has been on the ground for about 6 months now ! Went for a massage this afternoon -- lovely making me feel dozy :) On the evening walk today I saw the children from the after school club playing and shouting in the woods--a joy to hear their voices filled with laughter. Ruaridh just ignores them! Their torches made a lovely pattern as they descended down the path to the park. The white stuff fell from the sky as we set off on our constitutional Tuesday morning. Ruaridh loved it and was full of vim and vigour, started to dawdle on the way home but heh that's a dogs life. Afternoon play on Radio 4 excellent 'Art and Gadg' about Arthur Miller and Elia Kasan re their friendship. Wednesday decided to clean the freezer--water, water everywhere! Old chum Tony came for dinner this evening -- good times:) Cleaning out my paper drawer as one does/should came across some sayings I found in a politicians pub in Wellington New Zealand -- 'Committees--a group that takes minutes and wastes hours !!' Saturday the snow came--at last woofed The Wonder Dog, and ran about in the woods sniffing the white stuff and rolling in it Our dear chum Chris came for dinner -- loved the chat, G made a delicious paella and we drank champagne to the safe arrival of Chris' s grandson Archie :)
